WeildWorks is pleased to announce the New York Premiere of Fêtes de la Nuit, Charles L. Mee's sexy meditation on lust, beauty and the divine experience of love. Fêtes de la Nuit is directed and choreographed by Kim Weild, who incorporates American Sign Language into a production that features three Deaf actors. The show runs from February 8 - 27, 2010 in a limited engagement at the Ohio Theatre, located at 66 Wooster Street (between Spring & Broome) in Soho, NY. Previews begin February 8 for a February 11 opening.

A deliciously naughty valentine to Paris, Fêtes de la Nuit celebrates life, love and all things Parisian, weaving together a pulsating collage of dance, live music, tango, language, video and drama. Set in a sidewalk café in 21st century Paris, Fêtes reveals that from first kisses to eternal bonds, a quiet truth remains: it is always love that makes us human. Fêtes de la Nuit, translated as "celebrations of the night", sensually expresses the beauty, complexity and passion of the human condition in relationship to the divine experience of lust and love.

Performances are Wednesdays-Saturdays at 8pm with additional performances on Monday 2/8 at 8pm, Tuesday 2/9 at 8pm, Saturday 2/20 at 3pm and Tuesday 2/23 at 8pm.
